Description of the Related Art

Music is universal and has been around since the beginning of time. Music is also relative and subjective but everybody loves music. It is common practice to use specific songs to mark or commemorate significant milestones and special occasions. When a member of a family passes away, the bereaved members fall in a feeling of deep sorrow for losing their beloved ones because it is very hard to share the love and moments with the deceased one. Especially couples, who often share a song that represents the night they met or a wedding anniversary.
Therefore, a need exists for a system and method for involving a sense of hearing and creating a way for users to continue sharing music with their loved ones even after their death.
